* Build on Jeff Roberson's linker-set based dynamic per-CPU allocatorrwatson2009-07-141-270/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual network stack memory allocator. Modify vnet to use the allocator instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables. Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet region with the help of a the kernel linker. Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided. This change restores static initialization for network stack global variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS. Bump __FreeBSD_version and update UPDATING. Portions submitted by: bz Reviewed by: bz, zec Discussed with: gnn, jamie, jeff, jhb, julian, sam Suggested by: peter Approved by: re (kensmith)

* Reimplement the netisr framework in order to support parallel netisrrwatson2009-06-011-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | threads: - Support up to one netisr thread per CPU, each processings its own workstream, or set of per-protocol queues. Threads may be bound to specific CPUs, or allowed to migrate, based on a global policy. In the future it would be desirable to support topology-centric policies, such as "one netisr per package". - Allow each protocol to advertise an ordering policy, which can currently be one of: NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE: packets must maintain ordering with respect to an implicit or explicit source (such as an interface or socket). NETISR_POLICY_FLOW: make use of mbuf flow identifiers to place work, as well as allowing protocols to provide a flow generation function for mbufs without flow identifers (m2flow). Falls back on NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE if now flow ID is available. NETISR_POLICY_CPU: allow protocols to inspect and assign a CPU for each packet handled by netisr (m2cpuid). - Provide utility functions for querying the number of workstreams being used, as well as a mapping function from workstream to CPU ID, which protocols may use in work placement decisions. - Add explicit interfaces to get and set per-protocol queue limits, and get and clear drop counters, which query data or apply changes across all workstreams. - Add a more extensible netisr registration interface, in which protocols declare 'struct netisr_handler' structures for each registered NETISR_ type. These include name, handler function, optional mbuf to flow ID function, optional mbuf to CPU ID function, queue limit, and ordering policy. Padding is present to allow these to be expanded in the future. If no queue limit is declared, then a default is used. - Queue limits are now per-workstream, and raised from the previous IFQ_MAXLEN default of 50 to 256. - All protocols are updated to use the new registration interface, and with the exception of netnatm, default queue limits. Most protocols register as NETISR_POLICY_SOURCE, except IPv4 and IPv6, which use NETISR_POLICY_FLOW, and will therefore take advantage of driver- generated flow IDs if present. - Formalize a non-packet based interface between interface polling and the netisr, rather than having polling pretend to be two protocols. Provide two explicit hooks in the netisr worker for start and end events for runs: netisr_poll() and netisr_pollmore(), as well as a function, netisr_sched_poll(), to allow the polling code to schedule netisr execution. DEVICE_POLLING still embeds single-netisr assumptions in its implementation, so for now if it is compiled into the kernel, a single and un-bound netisr thread is enforced regardless of tunable configuration. In the default configuration, the new netisr implementation maintains the same basic assumptions as the previous implementation: a single, un-bound worker thread processes all deferred work, and direct dispatch is enabled by default wherever possible. Performance measurement shows a marginal performance improvement over the old implementation due to the use of batched dequeue. An rmlock is used to synchronize use and registration/unregistration using the framework; currently, synchronized use is disabled (replicating current netisr policy) due to a measurable 3%-6% hit in ping-pong micro-benchmarking. It will be enabled once further rmlock optimization has taken place. However, in practice, netisrs are rarely registered or unregistered at runtime. A new man page for netisr will follow, but since one doesn't currently exist, it hasn't been updated. This change is not appropriate for MFC, although the polling shutdown handler should be merged to 7-STABLE. Bump __FreeBSD_version. Reviewed by: bz

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | active network stack instance. Turning on options VIMAGE at compile time yields the following changes relative to default kernel build: 1) V_ accessor macros for virtualized variables resolve to structure fields via base pointers, instead of being resolved as fields in global structs or plain global variables. As an example, V_ifnet becomes: options VIMAGE: ((struct vnet_net *) vnet_net)->_ifnet default build: vnet_net_0._ifnet options VIMAGE_GLOBALS: ifnet 2) INIT_VNET_* macros will declare and set up base pointers to be used by V_ accessor macros, instead of resolving to whitespace: INIT_VNET_NET(ifp->if_vnet); becomes struct vnet_net *vnet_net = (ifp->if_vnet)->mod_data[VNET_MOD_NET]; 3) Memory for vnet modules registered via vnet_mod_register() is now allocated at run time in sys/kern/kern_vimage.c, instead of per vnet module structs being declared as globals. If required, vnet modules can now request the framework to provide them with allocated bzeroed memory by filling in the vmi_size field in their vmi_modinfo structures. 4) structs socket, ifnet, inpcbinfo, tcpcb and syncache_head are extended to hold a pointer to the parent vnet. options VIMAGE builds will fill in those fields as required. 5) curvnet is introduced as a new global variable in options VIMAGE builds, always pointing to the default and only struct vnet. 6) struct sysctl_oid has been extended with additional two fields to store major and minor virtualization module identifiers, oid_v_subs and oid_v_mod. SYSCTL_V_* family of macros will fill in those fields accordingly, and store the offset in the appropriate vnet container struct in oid_arg1. In sysctl handlers dealing with virtualized sysctls, the SYSCTL_RESOLVE_V_ARG1() macro will compute the address of the target variable and make it available in arg1 variable for further processing. Unused fields in structs vnet_inet, vnet_inet6 and vnet_ipfw have been deleted. Reviewed by: bz, rwatson Approved by: julian (mentor)

The legacy KAME KPIs are mostly preserved. * Eliminate now dead code from ip6_output.c. Don't do mbuf bingo, we are not going to do RFC 2292 style CMSG tricks for multicast options as they are not required by any current IPv6 normative reference. * Refactor transports (UDP, raw_ip6) to do own mcast filtering. SCTP, TCP unaffected by this change. * Add ip6_msource, in6_msource structs to in6_var.h. * Hookup mld_ifinfo state to in6_ifextra, allocate from domifattach path. * Eliminate IN6_LOOKUP_MULTI(), it is no longer referenced. Kernel consumers which need this should use in6m_lookup(). * Refactor IPv6 socket group memberships to use a vector (like IPv4). * Update ifmcstat(8) for IPv6 SSM. * Add witness lock order for IN6_MULTI_LOCK. * Move IN6_MULTI_LOCK out of lower ip6_output()/ip6_input() paths. * Introduce IP6STAT_ADD/SUB/INC/DEC as per rwatson's IPv4 cleanup. * Update carp(4) for new IPv6 SSM KPIs. * Virtualize ip6_mrouter socket. Changes mostly localized to IPv6 MROUTING. * Don't do a local group lookup in MROUTING. * Kill unused KAME prototypes in6_purgemkludge(), in6_restoremkludge(). * Preserve KAME DAD timer jitter behaviour in MLDv1 compatibility mode. * Bump __FreeBSD_version to 800084. * Update UPDATING. NOTE WELL: * This code hasn't been tested against real MLDv2 queriers (yet), although the on-wire protocol has been verified in Wireshark. * There are a few unresolved issues in the socket layer APIs to do with scope ID propagation. * There is a LOR present in ip6_output()'s use of in6_setscope() which needs to be resolved. See comments in mld6.c. This is believed to be benign and can't be avoided for the moment without re-introducing an indirect netisr. This work was mostly derived from the IGMPv3 implementation, and has been sponsored by a third party.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. separating L2 tables (ARP, NDP) from the L3 routing tables 2. removing as much locking dependencies among these layers as possible to allow for some parallelism in the search operations 3. simplify the logic in the routing code, The most notable end result is the obsolescent of the route cloning (RTF_CLONING) concept, which translated into code reduction in both IPv4 ARP and IPv6 NDP related modules, and size reduction in struct rtentry{}. The change in design obsoletes the semantics of RTF_CLONING, RTF_WASCLONE and RTF_LLINFO routing flags. The userland applications such as "arp" and "ndp" have been modified to reflect those changes. The output from "netstat -r" shows only the routing entries. Quite a few developers have contributed to this project in the past: Glebius Smirnoff, Luigi Rizzo, Alessandro Cerri, and Andre Oppermann. And most recently: - Kip Macy revised the locking code completely, thus completing the last piece of the puzzle, Kip has also been conducting active functional testing - Sam Leffler has helped me improving/refactoring the code, and provided valuable reviews - Julian Elischer setup the perforce tree for me and has helped me maintaining that branch before the svn conversion

Make VIMAGE_GLOBALS a new compile-time option, which by default will not be defined, resulting in instatiations of global variables selected for V_irtualization (enclosed in #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS blocks) to be effectively compiled out. Instantiate new global container structures to hold V_irtualized variables: vnet_net_0, vnet_inet_0, vnet_inet6_0, vnet_ipsec_0, vnet_netgraph_0, and vnet_gif_0. Update the VSYM() macro so that depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS the V_ macros resolve either to the original globals, or to fields inside container structures, i.e. effectively #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS #define V_rt_tables rt_tables #else #define V_rt_tables vnet_net_0._rt_tables #endif Update SYSCTL_V_*() macros to operate either on globals or on fields inside container structs. Extend the internal kldsym() lookups with the ability to resolve selected fields inside the virtualization container structs. This applies only to the fields which are explicitly registered for kldsym() visibility via VNET_MOD_DECLARE() and vnet_mod_register(), currently this is done only in sys/net/if.c. Fix a few broken instances of MODULE_GLOBAL() macro use in SCTP code, and modify the MODULE_GLOBAL() macro to resolve to V_ macros, which in turn result in proper code being generated depending on VIMAGE_GLOBALS. De-virtualize local static variables in sys/contrib/pf/net/pf_subr.c which were prematurely V_irtualized by automated V_ prepending scripts during earlier merging steps. PF virtualization will be done separately, most probably after next PF import. Convert a few variable initializations at instantiation to initialization in init functions, most notably in ipfw. Also convert TUNABLE_INT() initializers for V_ variables to TUNABLE_FETCH_INT() in initializer functions.

As a rule, initialization at instatiation for such variables should never be introduced again from now on. Furthermore, enclose all instantiations of such global variables in #ifdef VIMAGE_GLOBALS blocks. Essentialy, this change should have zero functional impact. In the next phase of merging network stack virtualization infrastructure from p4/vimage branch, the new initialization methology will allow us to switch between using global variables and their counterparts residing in virtualization containers with minimum code churn, and in the long run allow us to intialize multiple instances of such container structures.

Prepare for virtualization of selected SYSCTL objects by introducing a family of SYSCTL_V_*() macros, currently resolving to their global counterparts, i.e. SYSCTL_V_INT() == SYSCTL_INT(). Move selected #defines from sys/sys/vimage.h to newly introduced header files specific to virtualized subsystems (sys/net/vnet.h, sys/netinet/vinet.h etc.).
